Yiching Wu's pathbreaking 2014 book, providing key insights into the
contradictions of Mao-era socialism, "ultra-left" efforts to supersede
them, and how the Maoist-initiated mass movements and then suppression
thereof in the late 1960s laid the foundations for the consolidation of a
new ruling class and China's integration into global capitalism. One of
the most important books on PRC history from a Marxist perspective.
